How Malaysian odds are converted to implied probability

For example, Malaysian odds of -0.667 convert to implied probability of 40%.
Worked example
Convert Malaysian odds of -0.67 to implied probability
Since -0.67 is negative, convert to decimal odds with 1 + 1 / 0.67 = 2.49.
Then use 100 / decimal odds.
The implied probability is 40.12%.
Important note for this conversion
Whenever implied probability is involved, the conversion is useful for comparing bookmaker prices with your own estimated win chance or model projection.
Common conversion mistake
One common mistake is treating implied probability as a guaranteed true probability. The percentage is only the probability implied by the quoted odds and may still include bookmaker margin.
Malay odds explained
Malaysian odds can be confusing at first because they use a smaller numerical range and separate rules depending on whether the quote is positive or negative. Once you convert them into decimal odds, they become much easier to compare with other formats.
Probability odds explained
Implied probability expresses the bookmaker price as the estimated chance of an outcome occurring. For example, a 40% implied probability corresponds to decimal odds of 2.50. This format is widely used by value bettors and arbitrage bettors because it makes pricing comparisons easier.
Supported odds formats

Why use an odds converter?
